Almost a year ago I picked up a 85.5 944 from a friend for $700. It was poorly painted blue (over factory red), had been slid into something in the snow, and the interior was trashed. Sounds like a great idea!
This isn't every step, there are a LOT more photos in the URL at the end.
It looked like this when when we picked it up:
